Kochi, Jan 10 (KNN) Infoparks Kerala, which has completed phase I of its IT Parks here has generated employment for about 1,50,000 directly and indirectly. Phase II is expected to generate additional employment to 80,000.

“In the first 9 years, Infopark has generated direct employment for 21,000 IT professionals and indirect employment for over 1,50,000 people. The first phase of the campus will generate additional direct employment opportunities for 25,000 people in the next 5 years. Infopark is also developing satellite IT parks in other towns near Kochi,” said an official brief.
Infopark is now expanding further, having launched Phase 2, on 160 acres of land adjacent to Infopark Phase 1.
“Infopark Phase 2 is planned as ‘walk to work IT township’ with IT/ITES buildings and other commercial amenities like Shopping malls, Food courts, Sports Complexes, Schools, Hospitals, Business Hotels etc. An Electronics Technology Park is also proposed as part of the Phase 2 project,” it said.
Infopark Phase 2, when completed, is proposed to create an additional employment for 80,000 people. The proposed IT Township will house all the supporting amenities for a work-life balance.
